Leonardtown
Middle School
Nurse
Hello and welcome!
My name is Katherine Robeson, and I'm proud to serve as one of the school nurses here at Leonardtown Middle School (LMS). I'm a certified school nurse with 25 years of experience caring for students, and I'm excited to support your child's health and well-being throughout the school year.
Working closely with families, healthcare providers, community partners, and the dedicated staff at LMS, my goal is to help every student stay healthy, safe, and ready to learn.
For detailed information on our health policies and programs, the SMCPS Handbook is a great resource. I also encourage you to check out our monthly newsletter, "From the Nurse's Suite", which shared timely updates on school and community health topics. You can find the link in Dr. Dennie's weekly updates.
Please don't hesitate to reach out - I'm here to help in any way I can. I look forward to working together to make this a great year for your child!
